Life is Meant to be Lived not Feared!

I find life a very fascinating teacher...because if I do not get or understand something right away...it becomes a repetitive constant in my life until I finally get it! I have been getting these really rather annoying ocular migraines lately and no matter what I do to heal them they keep coming back on a more frequent basis. So the other day I am at one of my Reiki Friends coffee get togethers and one of the ladies there (thank-you Alison) shows us a print out of an astrology forecast that a friend of hers had sent her...it is titled "Pluto Retrograde 2013"...and I will not go into everything it mentions other than to say...good grief I should of had a V8 (tongue in cheek)...or in this case I should have remembered to check what was happening with the Earths & Universes energy and when the retrogrades were...I am always super sensitive during those periods and with the whole 2012 behind us we are now rebirthing our consciousness into a more enlightened state and as most (especially women) know the whole birthing process can be rather eventful and not always the easiest time in our lives! If you feel your head spinning or doing the fireworks mine likes to do...it is because so much is happening at such a rapid pace we are having a hard time keeping up to all the information overload coming through...but do not get over-whelmed...just step back take that deep breathe and trust that everything is unfolding the way it is meant to and whether you "Get It" now or later it is all good...Life...the Universe...the Divine...what ever you want to call it...has infinite patience and will continue to work with you until you are ready. Too many people fear change and transitions and really struggle with moving foreward in their lives...so life has a way of nudging us till we realize it is time to take that step...Life is not a competition or a race...we all get to go at the pace we feel most comfortable with. I mention this because with all this intense energy happening for most of 2013... dreams have become so much more vivid and prophetic...Spirit animals and guides are coming through with more and more messages and there just seems to be an over-whelming amount of spiritual happenings going on all around us...some say "Cool!" and others are just shaking in their shoes... so I say again life is meant to be lived not feared! If you are on information over load step back and just get on with your life...do not get caught up with the things that confuse or frighten you...go to a movie (a funny one is good) or attend your childs soccer game or just live your life...everything is happening the way it is meant to and if you are not personally aware or involved in the going on's in the Universe that is OK...trust and faith is my mantra! You do not always have to know why something is happening as long as you trust it is happening for a reason and if you are taking good care of yourself and your loved ones...you are happy...you are loving and loved...then you are on the right track and you do not need to worry about retrogrades or sun or moon cycles...they help us understand things a bit better... but are not necessary to live our lives! The most important thing is to live your life... not fear it! We have come a long way and fear is no longer the deep dark mind numbing crippling state it once was...more and more we realize how we create our Universe and therefore our lives and with that awareness comes the power to eliminate the fear that once gripped us!
So with that all said and done...please creatively live the life you want and shine a bright light on any fears...that will send them packing!
Many Reiki Blessings for a full and wonderful life!...Valerie
